Ergonomic Risk Factors for Low Back Pain among Three-Wheel Drivers in Ethiopia: A Community-Based Cross-Sectional Study.
Article in Journal of environmental and public health, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers, 1 of them a synthesis that pooled it.
What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundDriving a three-wheel car is an emerging job opportunity in most parts of developing countries. Drivers are at risk for developing low back pain (LBP). However, very little is known about the association between ergonomics factors and LBP among three-wheel drivers.
objectiveThis study was aimed to identify ergonomic risk factors of LBP among three-wheel drivers.
methods
conclusionNearly more than one-fourth of three-wheel drivers in our study had LBP. The finding implies a significant number of three-wheel drivers are at risk of developing reduced well-being. An appropriate health visit, lifestyle modification, and adequate policy should be established in the study area.
